All nine partnerships recently held a regional roundtable with community, business and government leaders to explore local impacts of the coronavirus pandemic and to help support the state government as it plans for recovery.<br \/>\nOutgoing Barwon Regional Partnership chair Kylie Warne said the group provided strategic funding, policy and service delivery advice to the state government.<br \/>\n&#8220;We have regular, direct access into government and our influential role has never been more important.<br \/>\n\u201cIf you\u2019re a passionate local from within our community and business sectors consider nominating for a position in our partnership, it\u2019s a great opportunity to learn more about our regional challenges and strengths, give back to the community, network and build leadership skills.\u201d<br \/>\nThe partnership is encouraging people from diverse backgrounds to apply, including people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, people with a disability, Aboriginal people and LGBTIQ community members.<br \/>\nThe term of appointment for new members will run until December 31, 2024.
